SliceMaster Micro Sample Preparation Tools are compact instruments that can easily cut thin sections from 10 to 200µm. These thinly sliced specimens may be viewed with a microscope. These instruments are simple to set-up for thin section preparation for specimens such as polypropylene bottles and multi-layer paper cartons. This product was originally designed for cutting specimens for FTIR analysis but is useful for many other applications. 

The SliceMaster is available in three blade angles: vertical, angled and multi-angled. The TS-10 Pellet Slicer is for irregular sized pellets, seeds, caplets and tablets. All of the SliceMaster tools use double-edge or single edge razor blades. 

HS-1 Vertical Slicer The HS-1 Vertical Slicer can vertically cut samples such as polypropylene bottles into 100 to 500µm sections, multi-layer paper cartons from 100 to 600µm sections, and PET samples from 150 to 400µm sections. Items such as polyester or other polymers can be sliced with a variable thickness of 100µm or greater. 1000µm Polypropylene Bottles 800µm Multi-layered Paper Cartons 600µm Polyethylene Tubes 400µm PET Bottles 200µm Polyester Cards 100µm Straws, Copy Paper, Polymide Sheets, etc.
